HomeMy WebLinkAboutClinton News-Record, 1984-08-01, Page 18Naturally Speaking By Steve Cooke Shooters' bible here Stoeger has done it again. They have turn- ed out a new 576 -page SHOOTER'S BIBLE, completely revised and updated with the most current information and retail prices on today's firearms, ammo and related equipment. What's really new about the 1985 edition is the expanded catalogue section. It now con- tams'over 425 pages - the largest of its kind anywhere - of specifications, descriptions, photos and suggested list prices for contem- porary handguns, rifles, shotguns, paramilitary weapons, black powder arms, air guns, accessories and reloading equip- ment. No compact catalog here. This year's book is bursting with new product informa- tion that every gun aficionado will want to keep abreast of. And what makes it easy to compare pro- ducts of similar design is the Gunfinder in- dex, the exclusive feature of recent SHOOTER'S BIBLES. In the Gunfinder, firearms are categorized by gun type; if you're looking for double-barreled shotguns, for example, you can locate them instantly without having to page through all the shotguns, which are arranged alphabetical- ly by manufacturer. So you get the benefit of both styles of organization — by category and by manufacturer. Another reason why the SHOOTER'S BIBLE has become the best-selling firearms reference. The article line-up in the 1985 book is a lively, varied one, too. Renowned gun ex- perts, outdoor writers and experienced hunters and . gunsmiths all impart something for everyone. Toby Bridges, hun- ting editor of Muzzleloader magazine, discusses high-performance loads for big game muzzleloaders. Modern arms writer/photographer Stanley W. Trzoniec critiques Llama's new"Super Comanche" — with high praise. Colonel Jim Crossman, long associated with U.S. Olympic shooting teams, highlights the 1984 .Games. Don Lewis, veteran outdoor writer and small - game htmter, presents some sound pointers on grouse shooting. Author R.A. (Bob) Steindler details the how-to's and intricacies of cartridge collecting.

What happened to the Reference Section? In response to readers' letters and preferences, it has been abbreviated to in- clude the Shooter's Bookshelf and the handy Directory of Manufacturers and Suppliers.' There it is. Another all-new, completely revised SHOOTER'S BIBLE — "The No. 1 Encyclopedia of Firearms Information" — indispensable to all who deal, dabble. or are interested in any way in today's gun market. Most firearms dealers and collectors have been waiting for it: the new llth edition of the GUN TRADER'S GUIDE, just published by the Stoeger Publishing Company. A biennial publication, the 1984. GUN TRADER'S GUIDE has been completely revised and enlarged to include nearly 200 different manufacturers of 20th -century handguns, rifles and shotguns. And in its lavishly illustrated 416 pages are detailed descriptions, production dates and current market values for more than 4,000 gun listings, including collectible military arms, commemoratives and other collector's items. Since its first appearance in the • marketplace in 1953, the GUN TRADER'S GUIDE has been continuously in print (and revised) and has become the standard reference for collectors, dealers and shooters of both professional and amateur standing. And understandably so, as all that up-to-date information between two covers is difficult to come by from any other publication. In addition, the more than 2,000 photos and illustrations aid in easy iden- tification and comparison of firearms — essential to the avid collector or dealer as well as the average gun owner.
